Granada Naturist Center

The philosophy in the Naturist Center of Granada is based on two streams of thought: The thought of health education, and thinking respect for natural laws. The practical application of these thoughts is the proper use of available natural resources: the earth, sun, air, water, plants, food, exercise, positive thinking and personal growth.

Over the years there has been an evolution in the scientific application of different techniques that are developed in this center.

The current techniques

Naturopathy: Naturopathy means "natural healing" and includes all the therapeutic modalities that guide the human body to its original state of integrity.

The naturopath employs remedies for external use, such as drugs or surgery, but uses methods such as fasting, hydrotherapy, massage, therapy with vitamins and minerals, vegetarian diets, health foods, herbs, mud wraps and exercise.

The standard treatments are often combined. Today, naturopathy is being widely accepted and in fact many students from schools follow courses similar to those followed by students in traditional medical schools.
